17th February media lesson - what we learned

Since we took lots of footage for our thriller two days before this date we thought it would be a good idea to start uploading our footage and editing it. From doing this, we noticed that some of our shots weren't as good as we would've liked or didn't flow very well, so we thought it would be best to work with the footage we'd already taken and take some more footage the next day at Bentley Road to ensure that our film maintained continuity with each shot. From this lesson, we learned that when we are editing our footage it is important to remember to check for any extra shots you could add or change to improve the thriller in certain aspects so that it actually fits with the codes and conventions of typical thriller films.
